Jerry Giraffe Sunday School Dec 2022

By Mildred Jutzen | Field Worker

We had an overwhelming request from Children homes to come and introduce the Jerry Giraffe Sunday school program with their little ones.

Heaven’s Nest is an emergency foster facility for young children in need. They have +- 18 children in their care age 6months to 8years old. They offer a secure, loving home until the children can be re-united with their families, fostered or adoption takes place.

We implemented lessons one to four at their facilities in the presence of the carers. We had 8 children age 4 – 6 years old sitting in on the lessons. The children had great fun and interacted very well. At the same time the carers got a hands on training session to continue with the lessons afterwards.

The carers found the lessons to be very meaningful, easy to introduce, using the lesson planner makes teaching the lesson so manageable.

St Monica’s ECD situated in Wes bank is a Day care centre hosted on the St Monica’s Anglican Church grounds. The facility takes care of +- 80 children age 1 – 6 years old. They have 6 carers overseeing the children. This was very challenging for us as we had this huge amount of children sitting in for the lesson. To our surprise everything went off well except for a few little ones getting restless. At our next lesson we asked for the class to be split and have the older children to only attend. Lesson 2 had only age 4 – 6 years attending and it went much better. There was 37 children in this age group that attended the lesson.

We look forward to implementing the Jerry Giraffe Sunday School program to more Child and youth care centres & institutes in the coming years.

Thank you for your ongoing financial support it’s been a great help to our organisation, we were able to share the Jerry Giraffe awareness program with so many young innocent children.

We believe it’s a blessing to invest in little lives teaching them how to protect themselves from the dangers they might face in the world.
